It is 2027. France is in a state of economic decline and moral decay.

As the country plunges into a contentious presidential race, the government falls victim to a series of mysterious and unsettling cyberattacks in which videos of brutal decapitations and skillfully crafted deepfakes proliferate on the web.

Paul Raison's own troubles are bound up with those of the country. He is an adviser to the finance minister; his wife, Prudence, is a Treasury official; and his father, Édouard, now retired, spent his career in the security services. Paul, badly overworked, is facing the threat of separation from his wife. When his father suddenly suffers a stroke, Paul must depart Paris for his provincial hometown, where he and his siblings now have the opportunity to repair their strained relationships with Édouard as they determine to free him from the decrepit public nursing home where he is wasting away.

Seems like it is mostly one foid, but idk the book just came out a few months ago.

Slightly different then.

I read Serotonin and Submission and the protagonists are essentially indistinguishable from each other.

I might read that, Houllebecq is quite intesting.
